Full service CLs

Just back from Church Farm Cottages CL , Cromer.   Beautiful . Well reccomended.

A Happy New Year to everyone interested in Full Service CLs

During the last year the list has been extended by 33 new CLs which offer enhanced pitches.

During December we gained two but lost one (which appears to have become a fully fledged commercial site).

The latest Enhanced CLs listing is here.  (Touch if on a tablet or right click and 'Open link in new tab' if on a PC.)

Notes:  (GTrimmer) - Church Farm Cottages CL appears to have only one enhanced pitch.  (KjellNN) - Crabmill Farm does not have an entry on the CAMC website.

...  or right click and 'Open link in new tab' if on a PC

if you'd used the drop box 'open in new window' when you made the link, you would have been able to make it open in new when the link was clicked.

but there again .... just about every other forum on the net would have automatically made it open in a new window. 

Thanks for the update, DJB.

I've just noticed that Line No.150, CL No.1789  Old Pasture Park at York is now no longer a CL but a 10 pitch commercial site with shepherds huts too.

Thanks to Nellie.  I had put a red line through it on the Sites Update and then did nothing about it !!

I blame the weather.

when referring to a serviced pitch does this include those with ehu and water? Many CLs are happy for grey water to be piped to the hedge thus making these pitches serviced, at least functionally. I am looking in Northumberland and note there are several of these "enhanced" sites that are missing from the maps.

There are no additions/deletions in the latest mag except that what was Lower Liston Farm, near Shaftsbury, is now called Five Oaks (Sites Guide No. 486).

In response to Scankguy (above) - to be an official grey water disposal point each pitch should have a piped drain but in reality many site owners are happy to allow the water to drain into a nearby hedge. Descriptions in the Handbook and on the web are not precise in this respect - it's certainly a 'grey area'.

Off topic- just scouring the CAMC web I came across the CL at Stourhead, run by the National Trust. Minimal facilities but a charge of £30 per night, minimum two nights. Admittedly this gives free entrance to the gardens but there is no discount for NT members who already have access free of charge. I think I'll give it a miss.

I've just discovered another 'Serviced Pitches' site.

No. 989 (Church Farm Cottages) in the 2021/22 Handbook makes no mention of enhanced facilities but their website does - perhaps a recent addition. It's now on my list.

I saw in a recent club magazine that Fernlea at Errol had closed due to change of owner I think.....is that correct?

David has left, Kjell, but it is still open as a CL, but at £20 pn we won't be visiting it again.

Here is the web site for it if you want the info.
